a gal friend of mine had a new car with standard shift, and was in an accident in a different automobile. basically, she was unable to work the clutch properly, so the dealer took the relatively new car back, and signed a new lease for her automatic shift automobile, and tore up the old lease, No additional charges or fees for the other vehicle, no penalties, no hidden charges, no hassle. New lease on a car she could drive more comfortably.

Their family has since purchased 4 or 5 additional vehicles from the dealer.

Again the import automobile companies are trying to sell you the next 10 cars, not just the one you are looking at. So they lost a couple bucks on the first deal, but they gained a loyal customer, and his family, probably for life, if not several generations. That is the difference between integrity, and the shady practices that are described in this posting.

I would truely like to purchase a vehicle made in the US with US parts, labor, transportation, and all the things associated with manufacturing a vehicle like buildings, roads, power, food, mortgages, etc, but it is difficult to get people in the us to really have dedication to their work, no matter what they are paid. I myselfe donate labor to charity, and to start up companies, without pay, because I am learning, and helping others to learn.

My 14 and 15 yr old neices and nephews want $8/hour to do simple tasks, and when i ask them to sort out steel from aluminum metal, they tell me they cannot tell the difference!

I worked for my dad for free for many years, and what it paid me was the knowledge of how to get the job done, and do it quickly and efficiently. My raises and promotions are a direct reflection of these learned skills. Thoes skills have helped me throughout my college, single, and family life, and they are more valuable than any minimum wage, or any wage as far as that goes.

I am not trying to disagree with anyone, just posting my experiences. I am happy with what I have, but I will buy import cars, and old tractors until I am convinced otherwise. I am confident that I can always get a job, or go back to school to learn a new trade. I may even retire to my farm when I turn 55.
